I will look into the bodyenvironment stuff. Is not much to go on. :-(

Had to delve into what I am doing. Was a ‘little while ago’ I wrote it.

I thought that 1.5em was used for relative definitions. I have a inc
file that I use. In this I have:
\def\Title{\dodoubleempty\doTitle}
\def\doTitle[#1][#2]{
      \ifsecondargument
        \testpage[#2]
      \else
        \testpage[15]
      \fi
      \startalignment[center]
      {
        \myblank[2*big]
        \switchtobodyfont[1.5em]
        \bf\em#1
      }
      \myblank
      \stopalignment
    }

In this case I have in my mane document:
    \input /home/cecil/ConTeXt-inc/standard-init.inc

    \setupbodyfont[palatino,10pt]

What would be a better way to do this? I prefer my include file
deciding the increase of the font.
